Jeremiah Brooks

Best. Dude. Ever! Hands down. If you know him, you understand. If you don’t, you wish you did. He is so hard to track down but when you do it’s a warm feeling of friendship that can make even the saddest moment of your life the best time ever. I really love this dude.

New meta skate shop flick

Does not suck at all! Infact, meta just took shop videos to the next level. Good work boys. Solid video. 5 stars!

The Trick Factory video “off the couch” also premiered and was just as amazing. The guys and gals of the Factory clocked in serious hours working on the video, and it all paid off. Good work!

What the F#ck?

carbike02
The parking lot a Lowe’s is the first place you’ll find something like this.

carbike01
This “thing” is registered as a car. If you see the motor is in the back. well, under the hood. Ol’ Frank found this one. Where do you hang out Frank?

tandom1
I don’t remember where I found this tragedy, but it very well might be the ugliest bike I’ve ever seen…

tandom2
Drag that thing outside and kill it. please… put this thing out of its misery.

AND…

Speaking of putting out of misery… The GS250 is now for sale! Help a homie out… You know you want to buy this bike

Ruby Helmets

ateliersruby_01
These guys are French. Dont hold that against the helmets tho. This 3/4 style is called The Pavillon, and comes in a ton of different colors. Their website is fancy fancy too. I’d like to see one of these in person. Im not sure how I came across these online but they look sick.

The Plaid Again Soda Review:


All four of these Root Beers were super good. I’d recommend them to any good friend. My favorite was the Mason’s. Full flavor. So tasty! And I love soda. Liquid sugar? Piff… bring it! Honestly I couldn’t tell a big difference between each one. But I can say that they were all really good.


These three sodas SUCKED! I wouldn’t wish these on my worst enemy dying of thirst on his death bed. Seriously… suck.


The middle one (Milca Soda Roja) is, no bullshit, RED. And tastes like cheap shitty red candy. Freegen twizzler soda. It was so gross. I chalked this one up as a “I wish I had my dollar back” kinda purchase.

Cruz event @ Pops TONIGHT!!

flip_flyer_web
Dollar beers, bacon wrapped dogs and skate videos. And for anyone who likes to black-out, there’s also a photo booth (so you can look at your photos and try and remember why you have that black eye you woke up with)

Skate Date.


I surprised Sandy with a trip to Cal Skate of Milpitas. Its about 45 minutes south of SF, but I was told that its the best rink in the bay. So I looked it up and Sunday nights looked like the best night to go.


Sunday nights are “adult night”, 8-10pm it’s 25+ only. It was pretty sick. This was my first time on roller skates since I was like seven years old.


yeah, adult night. so sick.


All-in-all the place was nice and we both had a good time. I think Sandy had more fun checking out what crazy skates other people were rocking and the dance moves that older black dudes can pull. I guess after playing roller derby for over 4 years just rolling in circles gets old after awhile. It took me a few laps to get it down but it came right back to me. I think I went to a few Roller Skate birthday parties when I was super little but I never had one at a rink. I was more of a McDonalds birthday party kinda kid.

A lot less (A tribute to Matt Hensley)


This is SO sick. Hokus Pokus was the first skate video I owned. I studied every trick in it like I was going to be tested on it by other skaters.

“A Lot Less” was directed by Patrick O’Dell, Edited by Aaron Meza, and features: John Rattray, Alex Olson, Braydon Szafranski, Andrew Allen, Heath Kirchart, Mike Rusczyk, Chris Pastras, Clint Peterson, Clark Hassler, Kevin Spanky Long, & Matt Hensley.The song is a cover of Sub Society’s “A Lot Less.” The clip is a tribute to the original Matt Hensley part in H-Street’s Hokus Pokus video (1989) which features the original Sub Society version.”

Full screen it on YOU TUBE!

Colorado Snow (Francis)


Fuck it. It’s cold, wet and downright useless. Some seem to think that it melting is what creates the beautiful Colorado river. Those of us in the know, though, acknowledge that John Elway created the Mighty Colorado. Check the pic!
